A Rose in the Arches

A Rose in the Arches:
From a very chilly shoot at Balcombe Viaduct during my time down in Sussex a few weeks ago, with the lovely Dave Mansi, and friend Peter. Great location! Bbrr but blimey it was cold!
It's the beautiful undernealth of a railway bridge which takes the trains from Brighton to London and much photographed, but I was very glad to be captured with it's amazing structure, built in 1841, the huge arches of which are like stepping into mirrors within mirrors with the tunnel illusion they create. And I had another shoot there a few days after, with later time & lighting giving it a completely different look. Luckily both times we had a spotter to look out for walkers :-) It was strange & funny to be posing and hearing trains roaring past way up above me.
